jewelry, among other things
Other Thing #1:
Yesterday, I had an appointment with my therapist, and I mentioned that I had been sick all week. And when I started talking about what is going on with my job, my right eye started twitching. As much as I wish I were, I am totally not kidding. (Maybe I’m wrong, but isn’t getting a twitch when talking about your job a bad sign?) He said that these things happen when a person gets stressed out and I looked at him like he was crazy, because, well, I’m not stressed out. Why would I be stressed out? Just because every morning while I’m getting ready to go to work, I curse my bad luck at having neither a trust fund nor a sugar daddy and I calculate how many paychecks I need to save before I’ll have enough money to stage my death, change my name to Lola and move to Uruguay. That does not mean that I’m stressed out; it means that I’m planning for the future.
But I don’t want to give you the impression that my job isn’t totally awesome, because it is. It is not awesome like getting a whole bunch of money for doing essentially nothing (at least not in my case), but it is awesome like, oh, a train wreck. So awesome.
Twitch.
Jewelry:
Chandelier earrings, red beads, for sale, blah blah, et cetera. I thought I would like the 1/2″ headpins better because there would be less waste, but I think they’re just too short to be anything other than a pain to work with, though fortunately, I bought all of those 3mm beads and they work okay I guess and I’m babbling. Right, I know that’s not interesting at all, so I’ll stop writing about it now.
Other Thing #2:
I just wanted to mention that I was checking my site stats, and noted that a popular search phrase was “hambone jamelah”. Sometimes I wonder what people are thinking when they type things into Google, but most of the time, I’m so glad I don’t actually know. The most amusing horrifying amusingly horrifying, however, was this: Culottes and Gauchos for men 2006.
And I think I just had an aneurysm. So I should probably go do something else now. Have a lovely day.
the twitch thing - yeah, it’s embarrassingly clear.
the earrings - gorgeous. Wish i could wear earrings - i’ve given them up like ritalin.
the culottes ? shocking. Yet, you know what to write about to make the hot hits of google list.
you have a therapist? cool. Does she wear men’s culottes?
I like the earrings! They make me wish I had holes in my ears (other than the ones that sound goes into).
Great earrings Jam and red too, that’s a switch.
Those 1/2 headpins are a bitch, I have tried that too and with wraps on silver bead rings. I was ready to bite my dogs after that experience so now I have a big bag of those little instruments of the devil. I am thinking they might work on a voodoo doll, huh?
Howdy to Monroe from Monroe. Hope all is feeling better now…

Culottes and gauchos for men? You probably thought, “Oh no they di’int.” I am here to tell you oh yes, they did. Yeah, they actually make those, and they are called “judo pants.” No lie.
